Right looking like I'm keeping the car now [emoji23]. May as well get it perfect! I have a knocking from the driver side wheel. Had it on a lift with a mechanic and he said all suspension components look perfect, only had my ball joints done last year so nothing there. Any ideas? Happens when...

Got an Aux cable off Amazon about 6 months ago. Was working perfect up until last week. Music does not play through the driver side main speaker (playing through tweeter in dash as normal) Problem only happens with Aux so I assume it's the cable at fault. Anyone have a link for a good...

Buying pads off Renault parts direct. Can't seem to find rear pins. Do the rear calipers have pins or what? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

Been getting a lot of white steam from the exhaust system recently. Assumed it was just the cold weather however today was very mild. And my car was the only one with a plume of white smoke following on the commute to college. I doubt it's the headgasket, oil is clean coolant is clean and...

Right, my aux belt has started squealing a lot on start up in the last few months. The noise subsides when the car heats up. Visibly I dont know how to tell a worn belt but it's showing 2 sliver/metallic lines along it (normal or not?) Belts were done with genuine Renault parts in oct 2013...

The last few days a new noise developed from the rear of the car, right after I fixed the boot latch noise [emoji19] It was a really tinny metallic noise and I obviously jumped to the worst case "thers something loose under the car and my wheels gonna fall off" The noise would happen...

Belts arnt due for another year (last Done December 2013) however the fan belt is squealing very badly on cold start, as well as a strange 'merp' noise which occurs every few seconds until the engine is warm, could it be a pulley, or idler that's nackerd or are the belts needing a change...

Just had H&R springs fitted, and I get a slight knocking noise when going over ramps. Sounds like it might just be the boot lid getting a jolt or even the tyre kit. Is there a chance that something wasn't bolted down correctly in the spring install (I've been told the top mount nut, but the...

Failed my NCT on a worn ball joint, Renault Ireland want 220 euro for a new lower suspension arm. so i went on MicksGarage.com, typed in my reg and ordered 2 of the ball-joints they recommended. Thankfully @bbsboy on the forum brought to my attention that the ball-joint i orderd is off a...

About to order H&R springs and Ktec 19mm spacers for the 197, anyone els running this setup? Wondering if you get any rubbing on arches and if the wheels are within the body of the car still (Need to pass NCT) Also if anyone has had a ball joint done what did you pay for labour, getting a...

I have a 2007 Model 197 with 128,000 kms on the clock, only had the car a few months and am noticing a strange tendency for the car to alsmot change gear itself (for lack of a better description) From a standstill, if i accelerate reasonably hard in first gear, depress the clutch to change...

Doubt there is one but thought id ask around. Had a snag list done up By Renault on my 197 and theyr looking for mad money for most of the jobs. Dont wanna go to any old garage as the car is Full Renault service history so would like to keep it full Renault and Specilist if possible Sent from...

Probably already a few of these type threads on here, sorry if so. Just curious of peoples milages and what parts they have changed to keep the car going strong. Im on 125,000 kms (77,000 mls) Nothing changed under my ownership but usual timing and aux belts done and standard maintanace from...

Trip computer screen isnt working properly. Sometimes is fine, other times extremely faint and faded and almost impossible to read. Any idea what the problem is? Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk

I have a Black clio 197 . Getting my alloys refurbished soon. Not sure what colour to get them finished in. Origionally planned to get the wheels done black, then considered anthricite. Until today i saw an old black Dimma(?) Clio with dark gold alloys and now i kind want that colour combo...
